Mercury Knight, Part Two
"Amy, are you alright?" Greg's
voice shattered the darkness.
Amy sighed, and shut her eyes
harder. Trying to ignore Greg. She
wanted to sleep right now. Her head
felt as if some one had entered it
and beat a drum inside. It was
pounding hard in her ears, and her
vision was very blurry. Her joints
and muscles ached, and sleep was
very inviting.
"Ames? Where are we?" Greg's
voice rung in her head, once more.
Finding she wouldn't be able
to sleep again, she yawned and
stretched.
"Geez, Ames, you look like
a fright."
Amy looked at him. He was
standing up, looking at her. His
eyes near bore a hole in her
skull. He was dirty, and his pants
were ripped up, his shirt had a
hole in it where the droid had
whacked him, which was covered
with dried blood.
She stood up, shakily, and
surveyed the area. "It looks
like the moon kingdom," she
announced after a moment.
"Did you get any visions about
this?"
"Yeah," he admitted,
sheepishly, digging his hands in
his pocket.
"You did? Why didn't you
tell anyone?"
"Does my dog count as 'anyone'?"
Amy sighed, exasperated, "What
were these visions about?"
Greg's eyebrows furrowed in
concentration. After a moment, he
spoke, "I don't really know. It
wasn't bad, though. In fact, it
gave me a good feeling."
"Oh?"
"Yeah, you see it was dark,
really dark, and I could barely
see anything, but I saw a woman,
and she looked a lot like you,
but it wasn't you, or your mother.
I can't figure out who it is, but
she smiles, and holds out her hands.
I think I'm supposed to see what
she has, but I can't, and the vision
stops when I see her."
Amy nodded, understandingly.
Though she had no idea what was
going on. She paused a moment,
thinking, and then pulled out her
transformation pen, "Mercury
Star POWER!!"
The darkness faded, as the
bluish light enveloped Amy, and
ribbons of color wrapped her deep
in a hug, a warm sensation came
over her, as it did every time she
transformed, and she pushed that
feeling of doubt away, as the light
went out.
The dirt-streaken, ripped
dress, unbrushed-haired girl was
removed, and the super heroine,
Sailor Mercury stood in her place,
"Maybe I can get some readings on
my visor," she said, as she pulled
out her minicomputer, and snapped
on her visor.
Greg sat in a pile of dirt,
waiting. He was already dirty,
so more dirt wouldn't hurt. He ran
his fingers threw his hair, trying
to smooth it out. Sailor Mercury
still typed away, so Greg lay on the
ground, awaiting her small, yet
joyous cry of victory.
"Greg," she announced, happily,
after a few moments of clicking away,
"I've figured out that we are not on
the Moon, but the planet Mercury."
"That is right, my children,"
a small, yet majestic voice rang out,
clear and strong, startling the couple,
"This was our kingdom before the
NegaVerse destroyed it."
"Who are you," Mercury asked.
The woman floated down to the
ground, in a soft blue dress, which
billowed out as she moved, with long
white gloves, and small blue heels,
the woman looked magnificent. But
what caught Sailor Mercury's attention
was the crown upon her head. It was
made of white gold, which shined
and glittered from her silky blue
hair, with a blue sapphire placed
with care, in the center of the crown.
Sailor Mercury stared at her,
quizzically, a moment, before a
strange expression came over her face,
"M...m...mother?"
She forced the words out. The woman,
Amy knew she was a queen, and the
thought 'mother' had popped into her
head. Though usually not speaking
without thinking it through, she had
blurted this out, for the words had
seemed right. She paused a moment,
awaiting the Queen's reaction, then
she realized what she had said.
Sailor Mercury immediately
regretted her words, as she said
them, feeling quite foolish,
thinking she was wrong, but the
queen's response startled her even
more.
Greg looked at Amy with a
peculiar look on his face. Amy
never stuttered, and she called this
woman her mother.
"Yes, my daughter, and since
you have both found your way back
here, then I assume it is time for
you to learn your past, for Queen
Serenity has only informed my dear
Ami of her life on the moon."
With that, the Queen opened
her hands, to reveal a large blue
energy ball. A blue mist surrounded
it, with flecks of silver embedded
in it.
Greg and Sailor Mercury stared
at the energy ball, paralyzed with
its beauty. The woman released it,
and the whole area grew brighter and
brighter until vision was near
impossible. Mercury and Greg held
each other as wind picked up, blowing
their hair and clothes. Mercury let
out a scream, but it was lost in the
wind. They shut their eyes and felt
themselves being blown apart,
"GREEEEG!!"
"AMYYYYYY!!"
Mercury felt her clothes peel
away, as ribbons attached themselves
to her body. It felt like she was
changing into Sailor Mercury, yet
this feeling was different.
Indescribable. She felt herself
being freshened up, and her hair
stopped blowing softly against the
back of her neck. The sensation
ended, and Amy opened her eyes,
slowly.
As Greg felt himself being
pulled away from Amy, he called her
name, yet no reply reached his
ears. He prayed softly for her
safety, and suddenly felt a warm
tingle run threw his body. It
chilled his bones, yet felt renewing
and his clothes began to shift into
a new outfit. A long sword appeared
in his hands, which, on instinct, he
put in the holder which appeared on
his belt. When the tingling stopped,
he slowly opened his eyes.
There stood Princess Ami and
Mercury Knight.
-------
Ryo and Ami held each other's
hand in the moonlight. They were in
the garden, on the small white bridge
in the center, which covered a small
pellucid stream. The stream was
crystal clear, and moving steadily
to an unheard beat. Every once in a
while, a ripple would disturb the
melody, from a small silver fish which
was carried downstream.
They walked through the garden,
quietly, save the occasional click
of Princess Ami's shoes on the stones,
and came back to the castle. The
castle was tall and wide, very
sturdy, and made of large, rectangular,
stones of cabochon sapphire,
which cast a beautiful effect when
hit by the first rays of light at
dawn. But now it was dark, and fire
works lit the sky from the horizon,
causing beautiful shades of red,
yellow, blue, all colors, to harmonize
in many different patterns.
"It's beautiful," Ami breathed
softly.
"Yes, but not as beautiful as
you, my love," Ryo whispered back.
Ami blushed, yet cuddled
closer to him, shivering slightly
from a small breeze.
He noticed, and removed his
cape, which he put upon the
Princess's shoulder with great care,
"Are you still cold," he questioned
with concern.
"No, not at all," she said
softly, and kissed his cheek in
thanks.
----------
The servant clicked her tongue
as she removed the thermometer from
Ami's mouth, "Temperature's 105.
That's some fever you have, Princess."
She bowed then, and left the room to
contact the castle doctor and report
Ami's condition to him.
Ami sighed, and rolled over
weakly, causing her much pain. She
covered her head with her pillow,
and shivered violently, though she
had on a down-feathered blanket,
the warmest in the kingdom, and
an assortment of other warm
overlays. She was freezing, and
chattered her lips. Positive, she
was, that she would certainly die
from this sickness, and counted the
days until something better would
come. She lay still, trying to
fall asleep, and soon succeeded in
having her eyelids begin to droop.
She lowered her head onto the
pillow.
"Princess, I have brought
thou some soup to warm thy bones,"
Mercury Knight spoke softly, "Tis
made by Princess Makoto, who sends
her greetings and sympathy to you."
Ami looked up weakly, dark
rings under her eyes, yellow
dried up crust from her eyes,
caused by the sickness. She looked
towards the container of soup, and
took a sip, slowly.
"Hai, this is very soothing.
Please send my regards to Makoto."
"Of course," he assured, "now
get well soon, I am waiting to
escort you to the gardens one night."
He smiled warmly at her, "now I must
be on my way, for I can not stay long."
Ami smiled, as he exited, and
vowed to get better, for Ryo's sake.
--------
"Please, be safe," Sailor Mercury
told him, as he prepared to enter
the Earth portal.
"Of course, but you know I may
not come back."
Mercury nodded, tears welling
up in her large blue eyes.
"You're in my heart, Ami." he
said, lovingly.
"And you shall always be in
mine," she replied, as a single tear
fell from her eyes, splashing softly
against her cheek.
He held her small body,
wrapping her in his cape, as they
shared one last kiss.
"I love you."
He nodded, and stepped
through the portal.
"No, Ryo, I don't want you
to go. Stay, please. No," more
tears spilled down her cheeks, as
she choked softly on her words.
She stood up, her knees shaking,
and exited the room, "Good bye."
--------
Queen Beryl raised her
staff, pointing it at the noble
knights of Mercury, Venus, Mars,
and Jupiter. "You all could be
royal knights of the dark force.
Why not come and taste the joy of
winning, young men."
"Thanks, but no thanks,why
would we want to work for a snake
like you,"
Mercury Knight yelled, as he lunged
towards Beryl, sword pointed at
her heart.
She raised her hand, and captured
him in a transport bubble, "Never
mess with Queen Beryl," she laughed in
third person, "you are mine, brave
Ryo. Come, join my Shadow Warriors,
the other six are waiting."
With that she flicked her wrist,
and he was gone.
On the moon, Sailor Mercury was
preparing for battle, "NO, Ryo, come
back to me," she cried in a strangled
voice, and collapsed on the floor in
a heap. Everything went black.
-----------
"You are to surve as a shadow
warrior, one of my finest combatants
in our war. Now tell me, brave one,
who are you?"
Ryo clenched his teeth in pain,
resisting the urge to give in. Sweat
covered his forehead, and slid down
the sides, he wouldn't answer her, if
he broke his concentration, then Ami...
Well, he had to do this for Ami.
A Dark General, with short blond hair,
penetrated the room, he was known as
Jedite.
"He will not give in, Jedite,
he will serve as a strong soldier.
Give him the motavation he needs to
join our side," Queen Beryl commanded,
as Jedite walked up to Ryo,
crouched in a ball, not hearing the
conversation around him. Jedite
laughed and kicked him in the back,
right on Ryo's spine, causing him
to loose his heedfulness and cry out
in pain.
The Dark energy which had been
circling Ryo, quickly ran through
out his body, threw his vains, he
felt himself shift forms, and cried
out in pain, as the dark energy over
came him. Everything went black for
him. He stood a shadow warrior.
Queen Beryl smiled in triumph.
-----------
"GREEEEEG!!!!!"
"AMYYYYYY!!!!!"
They plunged into blackness,
heading back towards earth.
"We're back," Amy noticed, as
she stared out at a street light,
which flickered softly in the first
rays of morning light.
"Yeah, and it's pretty late.
My mom's gonna have a fit," he
scratched the back of his head in
embarrassment.
"I told you not to walk me
home," she laughed gently.
He looked at her, ashamed,
somehow, then suddenly burst out
laughing.
"What's so funny?"
"I don't know. You tell me,
Amy. I thought I was from the
NegaVerse, and now it turns out that
bitch captured me."
Amy smiled, warmly at him,
"It's over now, you're safe."
Greg looked at Amy, sadly,
"but what about your mother?"
"She's alright. May she rest
in peace now, for she has brought
us back together."
Greg nodded in agreement.
"Oh, Ryo," she said, happily.
"Ami.."
They turned their separate ways,
Amy persuading Greg to show up at
Raye's temple for an meeting the next
day.
"Good bye, Greg," she whispered,
and walked off into the early morning.
